VIDEO: Jets' Burmistrov catches Bruins' Bergeron with illegal check to head

Patrice Bergeron isn't pleased to welcome Alex Burmistrov back to the NHL.

The Winnipeg Jets forward, who spent the past two seasons in the KHL, caught the Boston Bruins center with a high elbow late in the first period Thursday, resulting in a two-minute penalty for an illegal check to the head.

A normally reserved Bergeron, however, took exception to the hit and was called for a retaliatory cross-check.

Due to the nature of the hit, the NHL's Department of Player Safety may take a look.
